Quail Hollow is a private club located in Charlotte, North Carolina. The club comprises 18 holes that are designed inside several multi-million-dollar homes. One of those homes belongs to Webb Simpson, a Quail Hollow member and a US assistant captain this week.
The prestigious club was established in 1959 and has hosted several golfing events, such as the Kemper Open and the senior Tour's PaineWebber Invitational. It has been home to the Wells Fargo Championship, and in 2017, it hosted its first major, the PGA Championship, which Justin Thomas won. This week, it's the site of the 14th playing of the Presidents Cup.
The course was designed by George Cobb and opened in 1961. Arnold Palmer modified four holes in 1985, and later, Tom Fazio redesigned a portion of the course to prepare for the PGA Championship.
The course has a par of 72 and measures 7,576 yards, but it's played as a par 71 for Wells Fargo and this week's event. The first hole is a par-5 for members.
